Cook’s Illustrated Magazine includes the Unicorn Magnum Plus Pepper Mill in its “Best” category. This is because the pepper mill stands out among its competitors in terms of its grinding functions, ease of handling and operation, and aesthetics.
The grinding mechanism consists of nickel-plated heads. These are impervious to rust and can be expected to maintain their cutting edges for extended periods even with frequent use. Indeed, the mill comes with a lifetime guarantee.
The texture of the grounds can be adjusted using a nut at the base of the mill. This can vary from extra fine to coarse. The adjusting nut is independent of the mill’s loading ring. This feature, unlike in other mills, eliminates the need to reset the nut to your preferred ground consistency every time you need to refill it.
Refilling is accomplished by turning sideways the circular depression on one side of the mill. This reveals a loading hole into which you can pour over a cup of peppercorns. The cylindrical built of the Magnum Plus is comfortable to the grip, while its length, a full nine inches, makes grinding light and easy.
The body of Magnum Plus is made of ABS plastic. This makes them tough and resistant to impact and heat. In addition to this, the sheen of the black plastic body lends elegance and class to the mill. It is perfect not only for your kitchen work areas, but for your dining table as well.
You can clean the exterior with paper towels. As for the interior, there is no need to clean it. Just be certain that the pepper you put into it are clean.
